My daughter went here before she started school last year and my son has been here for the last year and a half. I could not fault the nursery! Each member of staff makes you feel welcome and are all so friendly. They care for the children with such respect and ensure the children's needs are
supported. A variety of meals with alternatives met with those with dietary requirements. The light indoor space and the large outdoor area is another contributing factor which makes this nursery so lovely. Children get to go outdoors in all weathers. The app updates and messages make you feel reassured and my son always has such a fun day. When it is my son's time to go school I will very much miss coming to this nursery!

Our son started at the nursery just after turning 1. He has only been there for a few months and we have already seen such a difference in his confidence, social and physical skills and even his speech has come on so quickly. The only thing any parent wants is for their child to be loved and cared
for as much as they are at home, we can genuinely see the care and attention that goes into looking after him every day at drop off and pick up. He is visibly happy and settled with every member of the team. He loves the food and as pescatarians, we couldn't be happier with the food and nutrition they provide. The nursery keep us informed about his day and are always on hand with support and answers to our questions. As first time parents, returning to work was such a scary time but the way the team has supported us from day one has been incredible. We can never thank each member of the team enough for the care, effort, and love they bring to their jobs everyday.

Fantastic nursery
Always keeps us updated on how our daughter is getting on.
A nurturing and inclusive nursery. Our daughter loves attending always wants to show me what she's been doing.
Good range of meals and our daughter gets extra if wanted.
We are so pleased that we chose Hollies.

I just want to say a huge thank you to all the amazing staff at my daughter's nursery. My little girl is 4 years old, and she absolutely loves coming here every single day. From the very first day, the team made her feel safe, welcomed, and truly cared for.
As a mum, there's nothing more comforting
than knowing your child is happy and in good hands. The staff are so kind, patient, and loving - they treat the children like their own. My daughter has grown so much since joining - her confidence, her speech, her social skills, everything has improved beautifully.
Every day she comes home with a big smile, stories about her friends, and new things she's learned. The communication from the nursery is also wonderful - they always keep me informed about how she's doing, what she's learning, and how her day went.
I'm beyond grateful for the care, love, and attention the staff give to every child. You can really see how passionate they are about their work. Thank you with all my heart

My daughter has had such a wonderful experience at The Hollies so far. She started at 7 months old and immediately they were able to put my mind at rest by providing such attentive care. The staff go above and beyond to foster an environment of both education and care. My daughter has had a change
in key workers since attending and the transition was smooth and without a hitch. All staff know the children well and take time to get to know their personalities, wants and needs on an Individual basis. It is a pleasure to now watch my daughter run into the arms of the staff for a cuddle at the start of her day, she is so excited to see them. I am left feeling reassured and confident she is cared for both emotionally, physically and her development is their upmost priority

Every member of staff is fantastic with our little one. They all have so much patience during the occasional difficult drop off and will do what they can theoughout the day to care for all the children. A brilliant setting that really works for us

My daughter absolutely loves going to nursery. The staff are lovely and so enthusiastic.
The outdoor space is great and my daughter loves spending time in the garden and playing in the mud kitchen. I would highly recommend the Hollies nursery.

Can not rate the staff at this nursery enough, my daughter absolutely loves it and from day one was made to feel so welcome, I was surprised how quickly she settled. She's only been going a few months but she's so comfortable and excited to go. The staff have been so kind and will take the time to
support you and talk to you about your child without feeling like you're being rushed. My daughters key worker Sharon has been fantastic. They've been really helpful with food as my daughter has a few dietary needs and they will work with you to make sure they give them the right foods.

Excellent nursery - professional, friendly and kind staff, offering a supportive, healthy and fun environment for early years development.
Both my daughter and son have attended the Hollies. My daughter graduated last year, and my son remains. They have both had a great time, talk about it fondly,
and the team have supported their development greatly.
Highly recommended.

Excellent kindergarten! My daughter asks to take her there every day. She really enjoys spending time there and returns home happy. The kindergarten has a large garden and children spend a lot of time walking outside.

My son has been at The Hollies for almost a year now and started when he was 9 months old. He is always so excited in the morning when he knows it’s a nursery day! The staff are all very kind and caring and provide a safe, fun learning environment for the children and his key worker is wonderful. We
are kept well informed and management is always there to answer any questions if needed. The large garden area is a great space, well-equipped, and my son absolutely loves playing out there, he can’t wait to show us what he has been up to when we pick him up! Overall, we are very happy with The Hollies and would highly recommend.

The team are so lovely and very personable. They genuinely care about the children and make bonds with them all. My son has settled in so well to nursery life and enjoys his days. Communication has been very clear throughout using the app and responses are fast via email also. I have no qualms about
recommending the nursery.

Our son is well looked after and thoroughly enjoys his time at nursery. He knows some of the staff very well and feels very comfortable with them, which is lovely. The range of activities he does at nursery is excellent. He spends lots of time outside playing, which he loves, and the staff encourage
this.

Spring Nursery The Hollies is a great nursery. The kids do a wide range of activities, the food menu is varied, and the outside space is ideal for running around. The staff are all very friendly, and the use of the app is helpful.

My child is looked after so well, we are very lucky she is at such a good nursery. Her previous key worker was engaging when she was in the baby room; kind, caring and always supportive. Her current key worker is incredible, she knows just the way to deal with my child and is fair, kind, caring,
nurturing and pushes development. The whole team is fantastic, everyone works so well to make sure the children are happy, safe and engaged. My child loves nursery.

My 3.5yrs old has been attending this nursery since she was 10 months old and has recently been joined by her 1 year old sister. The staff are all lovely and the children do so many activities/educational learning/play and just have so much fun. They obviously enjoy the food as every day the app
tells us that they have eaten everything! Both my children love going and this is all down to the fantastic staff. I would recommend this nursery for anyone looking for childcare in Taunton.
14 September 2023
My son had attended this nursery from the age of 9 months to 4 years. The environment is great, it’s really bright and open plan, with loads of outside space. The different age groups get to mix together, which I really think is a bonus as they make so many friends and it’s almost like being part of
a big family. The staff are outstanding in their care, patience and imagination in what they do with the kids. It has a very relaxed and happy feel when you go in, and you feel that the staff genuinely care about the kids and enjoy what they do.
My son has always eaten really well and he loves the food there.
I would definitely recommend this nursery to anyone looking for somewhere safe and happy for their child, where they will be encouraged to develop and have lots of opportunities for imaginative and creative play.
